Aging in Place for People Living with Alzheimer’s and Dementia
The term “ageing in place” is often used in reference to home health care, as it is the preference of the wide majority of Seniors in North America.
Ageing in place means independence, comfort, familiarity, safety, connection, and community for a Senior. The reality, however, is that progressing symptoms can pose as a challenge when a Senior wants to remain in their home.
Integracare offers at home Dementia Care services in Toronto and Mississauga to help families enable their loved ones to comfortably age in place.
The Stages of Alzheimer’s Disease
Early Stage:
At the early stage of Alzheimer’s disease, one can generally still lead a very independent life. While initial memory loss may cause one to forget words or require reminders, one can usually still dress, clean, cook, attend social events, and even drive. One tends to need assistance with things like medication management, financial management, and developing coping strategies to deal with the future.
